5w30 all day long.Mobil 1 if you want the best.Thats what is in mine now.

Stevo

Ebay jobbies.Made in Germany if I remember right.The original(volvo) wheels were fine but the replicas needed spigots.

Steve

They wont need spacers but if its an s60r you will need the spigots.They should be supplied with the wheels.Trust me if you go far over the ton(private road of course)the car will feel like its got...

I run these on my r and they work fine.You will need the spigot rings though or you might get high speed vibration.They work well,weigh just the same as the originals and are very well made.Mine...

Angle gear parts are £170,fuel pumps fitted by Volvo was £550,budget £1500 for clutch and flywheel,£330 for two shocks off ebay.ANY garage can fit them.
Volvos are a prestige quality car so you...

I own an s60r so I think I can comment on this.Just try to buy one that has had some of the `biggie` repairs done.Angle gear,clutch,fuel pumps or shocks.mine has been pretty bullet-proof for the past...

Thanks Lee.I ordered it last Sunday and fitted it today.All is working well again.Also found that the cruise control was disconnected at the clutch pedal sensor so that was an easy fix too.As I write...

Thats very good for an R.Well done.Just an early warning for you.When you get the clutch you`ll also,almost certainly,need a dual mass flywheel too.They always go.Remember get the clutch from Volvo...

Its high up on my s60r too.Look on the bright side you dont have to depress the clutch pedal to the floor to change gear.

I`ll be amazed if you see one.They`re like rocking horse doo-dah.

No Have`nt seen a Flash green one ever in Aberdeen.2 black ones is all.I saw a FG at Silverstone last year.SOOOOOOOO sweet.He was talking to the owner of the FG one on Pistonheads in Wrexham which is...

Indeed.He compared mine with other S60R`s that didnt have a remap,SS exhaust,colour coded paint,4 new tyres,new Brembo discs and pads,cruise sensors etc.etc.,grille,a slightly lower mileage,lesser...

Well the guy from Huntly turned up today and loved it.I get the impression hes seen a lot.Edinburgh,Abelour,Westhill in Aberdeen and Wrexham visited to look at R`s.
He was gonna offer 4,5 but I told...

I`m thinking of asking low 5`s for mine.New tyres,brembo discs and pads,colour-coding and the zorst makes mine very desirable.Theres a guy in Huntly looking for an R so I`ve sent some piccies his...

BTW.Volvo charge £220+ for a ballast and igniter combo.You cant buy them individually.
Steve

Jimmie.I just dont know what to do about selling her.I`ve spent a lot of time and money but think I should get something more sensible.
I`ve had it 3 years next month which is about right for me.My...

Thanks Jimmie.My boy agrees with you too.HIDS4U have new ballasts off the shelf for £120 so it will be that one I get
TBH I`m just about to put her up for sale so this will probably be the last...

I should remember but I cant.Can anyone confirm the correct type of ballast for a 2003 S60R?
Its a LAD5GL but is it the 4 pin variant?
My n/s headlight has failed and a new bulb hasnt fixed it.A...

The only thing with Turriff tyres was they were not keen on the 3inch pipe. Longlife said it was no problem so I went with them instead.

Evolve Volvo tuners use a 3 inch pipe and swear thats the...

The guy that done mine was called Bob I think but he was a craftsman.I waited while he did it and he encountered a few problems along the way but it was an expert job.Absolutely no problems with it....

No thanks.I like that look.I was literally sitting on the floor taking some of those photos and the car is pointing downhill.In the cars normal stance you dont see too much of the pipe but cheers...

Mine was bought in a place called BT Autos in Longside Aberdeenshire but if you do a search for LONGLIFE EXHAUSTS they have fitters all over the country.
Steve

Yeah she pops and bangs in every gear at even moderate revs like a Focus RS.
When I figure out how I`ll post up a sound clip too.

Steve

Sorry for the delay.As promised piccies of my new Longlife 3 inch cat back SS exhaust.

It takes 1 minute.They`ll do it while you wait normally.I usually only use dealers for parts but every now and then you have no choice.
